THREE BILLS IN THE SENATE COULD FORCE ABORTION ON ALL THE STATES

 

Following the historic victory on June 24 in the Dobbs abortion decision, the fight for life has raged in the U.S. Senate and all 50 states. 

The most dangerous time in our pro-life advocacy is after taking new ground—we must both hold the ground we’ve gained and prepare for our adversaries’ counterattacks!

Three bills in the Senate could force abortion on all the states. 

Sen. Chuck Schumer has vowed to undo the recent Supreme Court ruling on Dobbs. 

You will be shocked to learn just how far these abortion bills go. 

And he is willing to blow up the longstanding filibuster rule to get his way.

Meanwhile, activist state judges are blocking abortion laws. 

But the Gates of Hell shall not prevail! 

We need your help to meet these challenges. — Mat

Friend,

The U.S. Senate has multiple abortion bills that could pass at any moment. 

Each bill would force abortion on ALL the states. 

One bill has a sickening 48 Senate co-sponsors. 

Sen. Schumer only needs two more votes to destroy the filibuster and ramrod unfettered abortion on demand.

In fact, S 4132, euphemistically known as the “Women’s Health Protection Act,” is shockingly more radical than Roe v. Wade

This bill eliminates state and federal abortion restrictions, including:

  • Parental notification and consent for minors seeking abortion.

  • Informed consent.

  • Waiting periods.

  • Ultrasound requirements.

  • Hospital admitting privileges requirements for abortionists to provide continuing care to a mother after a botched abortion.

The bill also bans any “prohibition or restriction” even on partial birth abortions where a full-term baby is pulled halfway from its mother’s womb only to have its skull punctured and brains sucked out before dismemberment—while the child is still alive.

The bill rejects any abortion restrictions, stating abortion “shall not be limited or otherwise infringed.”

Sen. Schumer can bring this bill to the Senate floor at any moment.


And only TWO votes are needed to destroy the filibuster, which would result in the passage of these pro-death abortion-enabling bills. 

If the filibuster is eliminated, Kamala Harris will break the 50-50 tie—and unrestricted abortion on demand will continue to be a cancer in America.

In addition to our fight in the Senate, the battle in the states has exploded. 

State judges in FL, KY, LA, TX and UT have already blocked some abortion laws.

As of June, nine states had pre-Roe abortion bans in place: AL, AZ, AR, MI, MS, OK, TX, WV and WI. Thirteen had trigger laws: AR, ID, KY, LA, MS, MO, ND, OK, SD, TN, TX, UT and WY. Four had passed an amendment declaring their state constitution does not secure or protect a right to abortion or allow use of public funds: AL, LA, TN and WV. Kansas has a similar state constitutional amendment on the ballot later this year.

We have fought long and hard to overturn Roe v. Wade in the U.S. Supreme Court. 

We cannot let this victory be in vain.

The senators and governors must hear from you. Demand they PROTECT LIFE AND END ABORTION.

The forgotten victims ...

Jeff* found out one day too late that his fiancé aborted his child. “We were to be married. 

I didn’t even know she was pregnant,” he recalls through tears. 

“Twenty years later and I still can’t understand how she could kill our child so callously, like it was no big deal, and without even telling me.

“Shouldn’t there be a requirement to tell a father his child is about to be killed? 

I would have raised the baby myself, even if she never wanted anything to do with the child,” he continued with a crack in his voice. 

Not surprisingly, the engagement did not last. 

Jeff is now happily married to a Christian woman, with two healthy boys of his own. 

But the pain of that lost child still haunts him.

Lauren* worked in hospitals throughout the late 1970s. 

She and her husband already had two children when she became pregnant with a third. 

The doctors and nurses Lauren worked with assured her that her womb only carried a disorganized clump of undeveloped cells. 

Having an abortion would not be killing a child, they told her, but simply cleaning out some extra tissue.

Years later, as ultrasounds became readily available, Lauren could see with her own eyes that the doctors lied to her. 

Babies aborted at the same age as hers had fully developed toes, fingers and noses, with hearts beating strong.

She could no longer avoid the devastating truth that she had, in fact, killed their third child. 

“If they take away ultrasound requirements, more women will be deceived like I was,” Lauren says.

Several years ago, while in a Christian college, one of our staff members was shocked to learn that four of the five other women in her dorm suite had abortions while they were underage. Thanks to the lack of parental notification laws in a neighboring state, their parents never knew and never had the chance to save their grandchildren from death or their daughters from the heartbreak, shame and guilt that resulted in the aftermath of their abortions. 

The young women suffered alone and in silence.

The pro-abortion crowd wants to remove all restrictions against abortion, including notification and ultrasound laws that might have saved both Jeff’s and Lauren’s children. 

They even want to legalize the horrific partial birth abortion procedure, which is so brutal it is difficult to describe.

We must stop these awful abortion-enabling measures and bills NOW, and make it clear to every governor and senator that we WILL NOT TOLERATE the continued slaughter of these children. 

Please, make your voice heard NOW. 

We must hurry. Act now.

Meanwhile, the legal fight to protect the unborn continues. Already, activist state and local judges are doing their best to block state abortion restriction laws from going into place, including in FL, KY, LA, TX, UT and even Mississippi, even though it was a Mississippi law that was just upheld by the Supreme Court!

Our attorneys are already engaged in the renewed legal battle to protect life and end abortion. 

We will not rest until every child is safe from abortionists’ knives.
